# Feature flag user lists API **(FREE)**

> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/205409) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.10.
> - [Moved](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/212318) to GitLab Free in 13.5.

API for accessing GitLab feature flag user lists.

Users with Developer or higher [permissions](../user/permissions.md) can access the feature flag user lists API.

NOTE:
`GET` requests return twenty results at a time because the API results
are [paginated](rest/index.md#pagination). You can change this value.
